Marlene Kay (Eggers) Mohler was born December 15, 1952, and died June 15, 2012, at Presbyterian/St. Lukes Medical Center in Denver, CO. She was born in Lexington, NE to George and Elphe (Baugher) Eggers. Funeral services will be Friday, June 22 at the Crawford Community Building in Crawford, Nebraska.
Marlene attended country schools and then graduated from CrawfordHigh School in 1970. After graduation, she worked for two seasons at a hunting lodge outside of Newcastle, WY. Marlene worked for the nursing home in Crawford. She then worked for 27 years for the City of Crawford as the city clerk and the city treasurer. Marlene also served for four years as a council woman on the city council. Upon leaving the city, she was able to spend time with her family and do a considerable amount of baking for family and friends.
Marlene married David Finley on May 11, 1974. To this union a daughter, Jonette Kathleen was born. On July 18, 1987, she married George Mohler. To this union, Amy Sue was born. Marlene and George spent the past 25 years living life to the fullest. They were able to take many trips and share a beautiful life together.
Marlene was a devoted wife, loving mother, giving sister, caring grandma, and a great friend to many. She had a vibrant personality; her laugh and smile were contagious. She enjoyed working in her flower beds, golfing, and traveling. She took great pride in caring for her lawn. Marlene was a fabulous cook and baker as she made the best cinnamon rolls, cabbage burgers, cookies, dinner rolls, tomato juice, salsa, and zucchini muffins. She was involved in many organizations and often donated her time or her baked goods. Marlene’s greatest joy was her four grandsons. She loved watching them participate in various sporting events, having them help her bake, playing board and card games, although they had to make sure she did not cheat, and taking them to the water park.
